We're in that tiny lull where classes are done and the frenzy of grad season hasn't quite begun, and so I thought I'd better host while I have the time! Hugs to all the pixies that had a hard day yesterday, and to the esperanza family as they transition to their new life in a new city.

At tonight's vigil, I'm taking names and asking for people to DO something tomorrow. Write a letter to their congressional representative, write a letter to the editor, talk to their neighbors. No more hate. No more AR-15s available to any Tom, Dick, or Harry who wants one, no matter if they have a violent history. No more.

I'm just so tired of standing with a candle and having no follow-up, no follow-through. Enough.

I honestly have no idea how the time is flying so fast this year, but here we are in June again. The next week looks to be full of albatross polishing, for me. Then? I don't know. Maybe I'll start making inroads on the Things Requiring Sorting around here.

Our evening fog has returned, so we are not roasting, as in other areas.
